Finally got to the drags this weekend, unfortunately it didn't go all to plan,

the car had a massive boost leak, first run on 19psi(with the boost controller set to 26psi)

the car went 10.67 at 132.94 with a 1.77 60 ft, we coudn't fix the boost leak so turned up the boost controller

to 25psi manually(so the turbo was probally pumping out around 35psi to make 25 in the motor), then the

transbrake woudn't work. So i stalled it on the brake pedal, rolled out for a 1.68 60 ft and ran 10.21 at

140.9mph, all on pump fuel/ full exhaust and at least 20rwkw less than i usually drive it on the street with.

Car didn't use a full slick either , just a m/t street grooved slick that i have been driving round on.

So CTIFLY record has FINALLY been broken.

There a lot more left in this combo, if the transbrake worked it would have gone 9 something on that pass

and theres another 50rwkw left in the tune on pump fuel and 26psi still, unfortunately the stcck bottom end

finally went bang..the alternator failed and the voltage dropped to 7volts, killing the fuel pumps

and altering the injector pulse width....time for a decent forged motor

cheers

Hopefully you got some better traction there on the Sunday after two days of rubber being laid.

Heaps of traction problems for the serious cars there this weekend.

That thing is a weapon, and it's only a matter of time for the 9.

If we'd known you were going to be there racing, Nightcrawler and myself might have hung around to see you run.

There WAS a 9 run there by a blue skyline that weekend though...

cross ply et street, i haven't much faith in the radials, as my set for the street in 17's are

are joke and they wear quicker, 4 nights with just roll ons, no wheelies and they were bald,

not good value at $640.

The block/rods etc are all fine, sounds like i broke a ringland on one piston, still starts first go and drives,

just not on all cylinders:)"

cheers

just a shame you couldnt catch the cressida!

and his engine is still running strong...

just stirring...

good effort.

lol yep Jays running on a fresh motor.. Already done one in. :closedeyes:

What times did Jay run? Jake was out there also?

Obviously detonation killed the piston. A bastard the alternator let go. :)

All in street trim, daily tyres etc.. Top work Darren.

10.1 at 143mph

Jays "fresh" motor is still just a stock bottom end.

it goes to show that both nissan and toyota 3ltr bottom ends can pull some good numbers

lol yes.. I believe his origional motor let go due to a fuel pump/lean out issue also. :P

But definitely tough as bottom ends.

Jay run on slicks or similiar tyres to Darren? Great effort from the 5speed.

jay ran on full slicks, race fuel, no exhaust, bloody good time for a manual!!,

i think they are going back for 9's soon.

jake went 10.3 at 136mph with one pass then blew the trans, that will be easily in the 9's

in a couple of weeks aswell!

I personally have no interest in race fuels,no exhaust etc, i want to know how fast my car runs how i always

drive/drove it, and it makes it interesting,anyone can tune a car on race fuel, it's full proof, wind the compressor till

it noses over, set timing for peak torque, walla, no balancing act.

the car would easily go upper 140mph traps with those mods and well into the 9's setup

I had 1 pass on fullboost, if the motor lasted it would have pissed in a better time..but shit happens:)

next time:)

cheers

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
